Abstract (en)

[origin: US4249753A] The invention provides a simpler and cheaper arrangement of the support for the lower guide means of each wheel in a front set of wheels having independently suspended wheels. This is achieved by providing a cross-member which is fixed under the side-frames of the vehicle and ties which are fixed to the side-frames and are supported by the cross-member. End portions of the ties extend beyond the cross-member and act as a journal for pivotally mounting the ends of the transverse guide arms. Application in particular in MacPherson type suspensions.
